The Open @ Carnoustie (NO POLITICS)

[ebrasmus21]

^^^ I don't care who it happens to -- it's always a disgrace to the player and the tournament. Guy deserves to get his a** whooped by the closest pack of drunk Scottish dudes.

 

But apparently this only happens stateside... ;)

 

We're a bunch of degenerates so yeah, naturally.

Ha! Ahh, to drink a six o bud every day all summer and be thin as a rail again ; )

 

 

Well there's a young man in a T-shirt

Listenin' to a rock 'n' roll station

He's got a greasy hair, greasy smile

He says: "Lord, this must be my destination"

'Cause they told me, when I was younger

Sayin' "Boy, you're gonna be president"

But just like everything else, those old crazy dreams

Just kinda came and went

Oh but ain't that America, for you and me

Ain't that America, we're something to see baby

Ain't that America, home of the free, yeah

Little pink houses, for you and me, oh baby for you and me

Excellent win for Molinari. Bogey free last two rounds. Solid ball striking with a short game to match.

[QEight]

Btw - what the hell was up with the kid crying while Xander was trying to hit his shot on 17. I have two little ones and all about kids but someone should of either had the kid moved or duct taped.

 

No harm done though and everybody laughed it off.

[manku]

I had Molinari at 28-1, so it was thrilling. And I bet some friends that Tiger wouldn't have a top 5 in a major this year...if he makes on 18 I lose. I have to fade the PGA now.

 

Nice to be even after my Masters, US Open and World Cup goose eggs!

 

Wagering, and having your players in contention, sure makes watching golf a lot more interesting.

[avrag]

 

Disregard OBbogey. Per avrag, "choke" is a notional concept and need not be referenced.

 

Golf is hard.

Winning in any sport at the highest level is hard.

It's not "Choking", it's "Melzering".

[avrag]

It happened to phil and stenson a few years back as well. they gave death stares. Someone did it years ago to JB Holmes when he was playing tiger in the match play and tiger gave the guy the same look/reaction.

Scary part about today is the guy is a tiger fan!!! what an idiot...

 

The best reaction ever still came from Graeme McDowell. A very short, spontaneous and perfectly timed "Oh shut up, you moron!", while he was still watching his ball fly down the hole. If I am not mistaken, it was at Doral or at the Players a few years back.

[QEight]

He didn't end with a bogey though. It was a mediocre wedge but he almost made the putt anyway.

 

Was it that mediocre, under 8 feet was it? PGATour best average 10 feet from 75-100 yards.

[True_Red]

I don't want any more BS about how great the British crowds are compared to Americans. Jackass on the 18th tee box. No better than the ugly Americans.

One wrong word over 4 days.. It was out of order but you hear that crap constantly on the US tour.. Week in, week out, hole after hole

To be honest, (especially with Tiger) there were lot of yelling going on.

Loud Jerks come from everywhere to see him.

[imakaveli]

So what do you call what happened to Spieth today? A bad round, a collapse, or a choke?

 

You like Jordan: bad day at the office

You don't like Jordan: nice choke today

How is the Italian press responding to Molinari's win?

 

Smaller article than the football player Iguain possible transfer from Juventus to AC Milan because of the arrival of Ronaldo :D It made the news though...

But nothing compared to the US Open (for example). The guy on 18 was unacceptable, and as a Brit, I rightfully feel embarrassed (even if he wasn't British). Compare that to some on here who are proud that the PGA Tour is descending into a drunken frat party and that tells you all you need to know. It's probably worse as the crowds generally are respectful in the UK, so the odd shout stands out more than the cacophony of bababooeys that is almost white noise stateside these days.

 

It's also a shame that it has to take away from a fantastic weekend of golf from Molinari - he moved on moving day and consolidated on Sunday, when paired with the GOrecentT (at least) who was making a Tiger charge. He shot under par, and kept his head when everyone else was frittering away strokes. Anyone who knows Carnoustie should know that shooting a couple under in the final round if you are in contention is going to get you a win unless you are very unlucky. Birdieing the last to make sure was just class.

[OldTomMorris]

I heard Nobilo say Molinari had one bogey in the final 36 holes (108 holes total) combined of PGA @ Wentworth, Tiger's Quicken Loans and The Open - thats awesome.

feel you ;-)

[jmvargas]

there is no doubt that Molinari is an excellent player but is he exciting to watch?-----nope!

 

but that's just me..

[jerebear21]

I was just checking bst to see if there’s anything to buy.

[JohnnyCashForever]

A nobody? You couldn't be any more wrong, you could try but you'd struggle. 3 x Ryder Cup'er, hottest player in the world right now (according to JT) and serial winner.

 

Right on! And furthermore, he's a dark horse for 2018 WG HoF induction.

Exactly. The two things aren't even comparable.

It happens all over....however the reaction of the crowd who were obviously around this guy tells you a lot. Just unacceptable. Im sure he was 'advised' not to do that again.

[tsecor]

All I know is when Tiger started rolling I was freaking out. Got to where I was getting nervous on everyone's shots and putts -- this was a compelling final round.

 

Tiger:

• he still has tons of game.
  
• I hope this round does wonders for his inner belief that he can still win.
  
• His iron game reminded me of the good ol days -- how many great shots did he hit from 200+ out?!
  
• Why didn't he use his 1 iron more? That one he hit on 17 I think was only like 50' in the air. Vintage stinger action
  
• Can someone pray a prayer that will allow the driver demons to leave Tiger alone?
  

YJS:

• Ball-striking savant
  
• Hope he gets his putting back on track
  
• Hope these close calls help and not hurt him
  

Rory:

• He showed some fire and passion today - please keep this up Rory
  
• Also, please keep working with Faxon
  
• Keyboard instructor here -- learn to flight the ball down with irons??? Seems like it would be a useful shot for him to have
  

Fleetwood:

• Keep rollin dude
  
• Didn't someone in this thread call you Fleetwood of Nazareth?
  

Xander:

• Thanks for laughing at that child that started babbling. Funny moment there
  
• Dude has game a plenty
  

Rickie:

• Still got mad love for you bro
  

 

I disagree with all of this, excepted XANDER laughing at the toddler. Spieth, Tiger, and Rory needed to win this, and they all choked. They should be devastated that they had a major championship within their grasp and straight out lost it. Well played, Molinari. Somebody had to win it..

 

Really they choked?... WTF. So now anyone that doesn't win Chokes? Rory shot -1 for the day, hardly choking.

 

That's right - he choked. That LW on 18 was pathetic.

 

Rose, on the other hand, lost by one, and there was no sign of choking. Get it..?

Rory choked? lol.....that Eagle on 14 to get him tied for the lead was a huge choke.....hilarious....Molinari won it...plain and simple....if anyone choked it was Spieth AGAIN...+4 in the final round? shots from the *****er bushes?

They keep using that excuse "it happens all over, in America too", however there were no yells in Patrick reeds swing at Augusta nor koepka's at shinnecock. No, yesterday was a deliberate act to try and distract a player and influence the outcome of a major. And it may have... Again, well never know. What do know is that golf js supposed to be a game of honor. That applies not only to players but to fans too... It's simply not possible to officiate everything otherwise and hence the game loses its essential essence. We keep hearing about the tradition and how it started in Scotland, and this and that, and yet this crap keeps happening there.

Errr did you even see the end?..Rose lost by 2, exactly the same as Rory

 

Its not choking, its called not being good enough with a wedge, which at this level, compared to a lot of others, he isnt
